    Used it like a truck today.

    51F34656-6435-47BB-863D-1F4725A76B63.jpg

    Replaced the stock alloys running winter tires with 4Runner wheels and 265/70/17 Falken Wildpeaks. Used a new Dewalt DCF-899 impact driver to make the job go quicker. The results:

    6A2E78B0-046F-442A-A0D4-75F2E4B3A6BD.jpg

    Took it for a test drive. Slightly more road noise with the windows down. No vibrations up to 50 mph. Minimal rubbing on the front passenger side near full lock. Bending the small plastic shield in front of the tire took care of most of the rubbing. Getting the right clips to hold the mud flap back will take care of the rest of he rubbing.

    Filled up with gas and used the Gasshole for the first time. Works well as advertised.

    Rinsed the pollen off and wiped it down. Called it a day.

    Can you take a pic from the side? I would like to see how far it sticks out.

    I wasn't referring to the fumes as much as the hazard if there was to be a fire while you were in there. Gasoline is a MASSIVE game changer if it were to happen. Be safe!

    I'm curious as to the long time reliability of this device, as well as how it works for day to day use, another person on here installed one, https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/eonon-10-1-double-din-android-head-unit.548449 so if you get a chance in the future post there with your experience with this head unit.[/QUOTE]

    Only drove about 20miles and they are much nicer than my procomp AAL. I'm sure they will break in and the ride will get nicer. Really cant wait to test them offroad.

    Cut what wax was left on it off (blue dawn) and used chem guys paint sealant held up well last winter so I’ll try it again.
    I didn’t buff this year but did clay and had very little crap for the bar to get out.

    So you foam the whole thing then wash as opposed to using a bucket?
    I’ve seen these but wasn’t sure I’d use it.
